Came here for tea one night as live locally. Had garlic mushrooms for starter... They were just pure oil, absolutely disgusting, had salmon steak with rice for main, the salmon was lovely and tasty however the rice was like the microwave frozen rice with the carrots and peas in it, and was only edible with lots of salt on it!...
